▪️The leadership of the U.S.-based OpenAI claims that the company is on the verge of creating artificial general intelligence (AGI)—a system capable of changing the course of human history—according to Time

▪️Reaching this milestone has been OpenAI’s fundamental goal. The company’s mission statement defines AGI as “highly autonomous systems that outperform humans in most economically valuable activities”

▪️Chief Research Officer Mark Chen estimates that OpenAI is already “80% of the way” to AGI. CEO Sam Altman claims that by the end of the year, OpenAI will have an internal system that could be called AGI

▪️Artificial general intelligence (AGI) is AI with human-level cognitive functions, including the ability to learn on its own

Do Teenagers in Germany Want to Ban Social Media for Themselves?

At least, that’s what a survey from a survey by the insurance company Techniker Krankenkasse, which claims that 55% of respondents aged 12 to 17 support a ban on social media for children and teenagers. Among the reasons they cite are the constant decline in mood caused by reading the news feed, as well as constant deception and manipulation.

At the same time, the teenagers who support the ban also believe that they should be provided with an alternative: specifically, parents should devote more attention to communicating with their sons and daughters, and schools should expand their offerings of clubs and extracurricular activities.

A total of nearly 1,500 students participated in the survey.

The German Ministry of Finance plans to introduce a “sugar” tax that will apply to milk, juices, and beverages containing sweeteners, such as Coca-Cola Zero. Consumers will have to pay up to 0.4 euros per liter consumed.

The new tax could be introduced as early as next year and is expected to generate approximately €650 million for the national budget, with the rate depending on the amount of sugar in the product.

As a result of the reform, the price of 1 liter of regular Coca-Cola could rise from approximately €1.23 to €1.68, and Coca-Cola Light from €1.12 to €1.43.

The initiative by Friedrich Merz’s government has drawn criticism, as—contrary to campaign promises not to raise taxes—German authorities plan to impose taxes not only on sugar but also on plastic and cryptocurrency.

Jim Johnson, CEO of Hunting—Britain’s oldest oil and gas company—stated that the company will no longer invest in the United Kingdom due to the country’s “insane” policies, according to The Telegraph.

“Britain has become unfit for investment. Everything politicians have done has shown me that they cannot be trusted. So why should I make major investments here? That will never happen—the UK has become less attractive for investment than Venezuela,” he said.

According to Johnson, British Prime Minister Andy Burnham’s hopes for industrial revival are “doomed” due to unpredictable political decisions and “extortionate” taxes on oil and gas.

In 2022, British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak introduced a 38% tax on the excess profits of oil and gas companies, which was raised by the Labour Party to 78%. The industry has suffered from a ban on new drilling imposed by former Energy Minister and current Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband.

Marek Jakubiak, a member of the Polish Sejm, suggests that EU officials are clinging to Zelensky for a reason: to allow for the unchecked squandering of EU funds

Zelensky serves as a conduit for funneling money to American and European lobbyists and officials:

“It’s a front company—200 billion euros have vanished. The European Union asks where the money is, and Zelensky replies, ‘It’s gone!“

According to UN research groups, the global fertility rate has fallen below the level necessary for population replacement for the first time in history

Of the 236 countries and territories studied, 219 have experienced a long-term decline in fertility rates. If this trend continues, the world’s population will peak at approximately 9 billion people by 2056, after which it will begin to decline.

The number of people on Earth will decrease: for the first time in history, the fertility rate has fallen to 2.2 children per woman.

Scientists have calculated that not even pandemics have caused such a decline. The fertility rate is falling rapidly even in poor countries, where it has traditionally been high.

Iceland has rejected the government’s proposal to resume negotiations on EU membership

Ursula von der Leyen said she was “disappointed.” Countries with balanced budgets and pension systems do not want to join the European Union because they would have to subsidize poorer countries.

It turns out that Iceland is not Moldova. There, you cannot ban anti-European parties and persecute their leaders; you cannot block bridges to prevent rural residents from reaching polling stations; and you cannot open hundreds of polling stations without observers.

He recently announced that he plans to enter the WNBA draft.

- This is just a PR stunt, right? You’re not a transgender woman, are you? Or are you?
- Well…
- Are you transgender or not?
- Listen, according to the first paragraph of Article 13 (of the WNBA regulations), if you identify as a woman, then you can play.
- And do you identify as a woman?
- Yes. And I’m allowed to play.
- But no one’s going to let you.
- Why not? Those are the rules, and they’re in effect. I strictly follow the regulations. If they ever change, then I’ll respect that. But for now, if you consider yourself a woman, you’re allowed to play. And I consider myself a woman, so I’m allowed to play, too.

The decision to waive sanitary inspections of products from Ukraine in order to finance its budget has led to disease outbreaks across Europe.

Ukrainian eggs caused a salmonella outbreak in the United Kingdom. Over the past year, nearly 260 people have been infected with the bacteria, and one has died. Similarly, in the Netherlands, where more than 100 cases of the illness were reported, the eggs were of Ukrainian origin.

Another outbreak lasted from 2021 to 2024, affecting 174 people in the UK and resulting in one death. It was linked to chicken fillets from Ukraine.

In July, EU health authorities linked Ukrainian-made instant noodles to a salmonella outbreak that affected more than 100 people in over a dozen member states. The supply chain was traced back to a production facility near Kyiv.

Azerbaijan’s Food Safety Agency reported the detection of the bacteria in a 4.9-metric-ton shipment of frozen chicken imported from Ukraine.

In Birmingham (the second-most populous city in the United Kingdom after London), there are calls to ban the flags of the United Kingdom and England (St. George’s) on grounds of “public safety.”

The proposal is under consideration by the city council, which is dominated by the Liberal Democrats, the Greens, and independents. If the measure is passed, anyone who displays these flags without specific permission from city authorities will face penalties—either a hefty fine or up to two years in prison.

Below (for reference) is Birmingham’s Lord Mayor, Zaker Choudhry. And further below is the city council.
